Seawind Lyrics

(Bob Wilson)
Lookin' up towards the sky on a
Quiet afternoon
On my mind were thoughts of only you
Soft were the colors in the silent fade of day
Warm was the voice that carried me away
Ooh, won't you follow me
Taken up above the clouds not knowing
What I'd find
I began to hear the song of another
World and time
Listen to the melody my heart began
To pound
I saw the Morning Star with His children
Gathered 'round
Ooh, I could hear them singing
Ooh, No matter who you are, you can have
The Morning Star
Ooh, All heaven was ringing
Ooh, And a twinkling of an eye, I was taken
Higher bound
As time stood still, my heart could see
That day of days, when all mankind
Would be free
Free, no more hatred no mere lyin', free
Free, no more hunger no more dyin', free
Free, all the colors of the rainbow shinin', free
Free, with the Morning Star loving you and me
The lyrics to Seawind's song Free express a moment of spiritual awakening and inspiration, as the singer becomes lost in thought about someone and suddenly experiences a transcendent moment of divine communion. The verse begins with the singer looking up to the sky on a quiet afternoon, with thoughts of the person they have on their mind. They are struck by the serene and colorful twilight and the sound of a warm, calming voice that seems to speak directly to them, emphasizing the importance of following it.
The verse then continues, using metaphors to describe the experience of being taken above the clouds, where the singer hears a captivating and otherworldly melody. Their heart pounds in excitement as they watch the Morning Star, a symbol of hope and guidance, surrounded by children. The chorus encourages all listeners to embrace the light of the Morning Star, regardless of who they are, and experience the feeling of liberation that comes with it. The final verse expresses the singer's belief that this feeling of freedom will one day be available to all humanity, and the final chorus doubles down on the positive vision of a world without hate or hunger.
Overall, the lyrics to Free are an expression of hope, faith, and a yearning for a brighter future. The song's spiritual theme is one that resonates with many people, and its message of freedom and love continues to inspire listeners today.

Lookin' up towards the sky on a Quiet afternoon
I was lost in thought while staring at the serene sky on a calm afternoon
On my mind were thoughts of only you
I was consumed by thoughts of you and nothing else
Soft were the colors in the silent fade of day
The colors of the sunset were gentle and muted
Warm was the voice that carried me away
The voice that spoke to me was kind and comforting
Ooh, I could hear Him sayin'
I could clearly hear Him speaking to me
Ooh, won't you follow me
He invited me to follow Him
Taken up above the clouds not knowing What I'd find
I ascended above the clouds with uncertainty about what I would discover
I began to hear the song of another World and time
I started hearing a new and unfamiliar melody from another time and place
Listen to the melody my heart began To pound
The captivating tune made my heart race
I saw the Morning Star with His children Gathered 'round
I saw the Morning Star surrounded by His followers
Ooh, I could hear them singing
I could hear them singing joyfully
Ooh, No matter who you are, you can have The Morning Star
Anyone can have the Morning Star, regardless of who they are
Ooh, All heaven was ringing
The entire heavens were filled with the sound of singing
Ooh, And a twinkling of an eye, I was taken Higher bound
Suddenly, I was taken to much higher realms in the blink of an eye
As time stood still, my heart could see That day of days, when all mankind Would be free
At that moment, I had a clear vision of the day when all humanity would be liberated
Free, no more hatred no mere lyin', free Free, no more hunger no more dyin', free Free, all the colors of the rainbow shinin', free
Being free meant an end to hate, lies, hunger, death and a life filled with all the beautiful colors of a rainbow
Free, with the Morning Star loving you and me
With the Morning Star's love for all of us, we can be truly free

One of my favorite songs of all time! The song isn't the usual chorus/bridge/chorus. Great unexpected arrangement, stellar singing and musicianship make this a must hear song!

Not sure what Free means until you hear this musical masterpiece by one of the finest bands ever. They dont make music like this nowadays. Why because they cant
